Ahead Projcets until visit in Spain The launch of our project: Date ca Nov. 15 th We all sing the same song, „It’s a Small World“. Each country sings the song in their language as Stavroulas children did so beautifully, but sings the chorus lines in English. We film the song and put it on our TwinSpace. The Logo Contest: Every school has a contest for our projects logo and has the children vote for one that will enter the final contest between our 8 countries. The vote should take place no later than Nov. 25th. Then we scan the winning logo and send to each country. Again the children vote and now between these 8 logos. No later than Nov. 30th. Every school collects the results of the vote. UK will collect the votes and introduce the results. The winning logo will go to our TwinSpace and our Comenius wall. Skype: Everyone makes an account in the schools name. We call the next school below on the list (page 47 in our application, except the last country that will call the country on the top of the list) resulting in each school meeting with 2 schools. We will sing a traditional Christmas carol for each other. Each pair of schools will be in touch with each other to find a suitable time. The Christmas cards: Mail homemade Christmas cards by ordinary mail with stamps The Good Practice Guide: This we decided to discuss in our meeting in Spain next February. TwinSpace: David from England creates an account. We have to mail to him our names and s and the same information about our colleges at home that need access.
